2. Agreed
On a very touching tribute thread the night he passed, some troll put in some rather vile links. In my anger I, of course, replied with a "Fuck you douchebag"... sigh... I did not think before posting and allowed myself to be goaded. Fortunately the mods removed my comments with the trolls. I did send an apology to the OP.

12. Erm...yeah, about that. I'm kinda new here and saw enough venting at the
trolls that I thought that was just "how we roll" here. (I learned that phrase from Grandpa Master Trash, Michael Steel. Gangsta, huh?) I've also been using the alert function probably too frequently, but I just feel like I smell a freeper post a mile away.

So, today I happened to be looking something up in the Help section, and went on to read up on how we're not supposed to taunt the viscous little gutter snipes. So, sorry all. I'll DU better.

13. May I add my gratitude also.. I did not even have to see them because of you
Again thanks.. It has been a very hard few days, and the last thing I would have wanted to see was some vile comments from the underbelly of the net

15. You're welcome
I was on when the news broke shortly after midnight (CDT). It was very sad to watch the transition.

I stayed up as late as I could, holding back the freepers and removing their droppings.

19. Well they must have done one hell of a job
because I never even saw any trolls, and I was on pretty much constantly yesterday.

Yay mods!
:)
